Itihas

About This Movie

So, 'Itihas' from '95 is this Assamese flick by Bhabendra Nath Saikia, and it dives deep into the moral decay of society—pretty heavy stuff. The atmosphere is quite somber, almost reflective. The pacing feels deliberate, giving you time to soak in the themes of disillusionment and familial ties. The performances are solid, bringing a rawness that feels genuine. What stands out is how it employs simple yet effective practical effects to enhance the narrative without overshadowing it. It’s distinct in its cultural resonance, shedding light on issues that might be specific to Assam but are universally felt. Definitely a piece that invites discussion, you know?
